PARENTAL CONTROL / RATINGS

Parental Control can be used to block specific channels, ratings and other viewing sources.
The Parental Control Function (V-Chip) is used to block program viewing based on the ratings sent by
the broadcasting station. The default setting is to allow all programs to be viewed. Viewing can be
blocked by choosing the type of the program and the categories. It is also possible to block all program
viewing for a time period. To use this function, the following must be done :
1. Set ratings and categories to be blocked.
2. Specify a password
3. Enable the lock
V-Chip rating and categories
Rating guidelines are provided by broadcasting stations. Most television programs and television movies
can be blocked by TV Rating and/or Individual Categories. Movies that have been shown at the theaters
or direct-tovideo movies use the Movie Rating System (MPAA) only.

TV-G (General audience)
TV-PG (Parental guidance suggested)
TV-14 (Parents strongly cautioned)
